Such drives are not easy to remove the password if you don't know the password
Our company can do that if you interested but it's not for free

I presume he means free or solution cheaper than buying a new HDD? If so, then no.

If data is required, then there are solutions, but not free.

Hi Thank you all of your for your kind concern.
Its an old 80gb disk from a friend. No data is to be recovered & disk has to be utilised. I am into data recovery & know details of ATA password but my company does not own pc3000.
I thought security erase may work , so tried fujtool v0.4 / Atapwd / Victoria v 4.46 ( which has unlock option but gave error drive diskconnected thorough pio mode).
Also tried hdderase from CMRR , nothing worked out. Seems PC3000 is the only solution as salvatiodata is not having fujitsu solution.
thank you

Unlock with erase : a pro would charge only few bucks - with or without PC3K

You can try below product. I guess license is per usage. If you wish to unlock with erase, it is free by one of their tool.
Your model is listed as supported in their website. Hope this helps. http://www.hddunlock.com/drives/fujitsu/

Tried Hddunlock wizard , but since disk is not initilized in windows , wizard is unable to find it.
It is connected to native SATA por on Asus A8N SLI deluxe motherboard is well getting detected in BIOS & Disk Management but wizard is unable to locate it.
Now what to do? Can someone from AFF or HDDunlock help?
Thanks

If Mhdd won't help in this case, only special command or a pro can.

I am afraid it may due to sata controller issue. Why don't you try intel chipset mother board instead of Nvidia? And it has to be connected as master. i have done it before. Refer to attached screenshot for same model.
